Greatest 80s Hairstyle

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

it's time we settled this once and for all. images below.

Hey, be nice. He's in Australia. They've just reached 1986 down there. Takes a while for fashions to spread across the globe :wink:

And don't worry, there's three more seasons of Miami Vice to go. You'll be able to keep up with all those fancy American fashions!
